Elon is not the founder of Tesla. He sued the actual founders to bury that fact.

A subset of users on the r/piracy subreddit responded harshly to the designer's expression of disappointment, with some claiming that he must be fabulously wealthy. "This is like a man in a solid gold suit spitting at a homeless person," decided one poster.

Lol, only /r/piracy would be dense enough to come up with that analogy.

It wasn't a script kiddy. It wasn't even a human. You are going to be a very busy individual if you decide to report every port scan you find.

Actually, they are both wrong. The billionaires funding the project would be billionaires² and we would remain under their thumb.

AI CEO D. Scott Phoenix laid out a vision of a world in which the chipped enjoy so many advantages of the unchipped that you’ll be forced to comply.

I won't even verify my age online. He can shove my advantageous chip right up his ass.

It's refreshing to see this because it's so rare that there's any real pushback to the global race of countries attempting to strip their citizens of any remaining scrap of privacy.

Without context, the image isn't that impressive. If nothing XP-related actually works and it's just a display exercise, it's just a 20-something year old skin import.

If absolutely everything works in the manner XP worked, then it's incredibly impressive.

Musk also says he created Tesla, so I'd take it with a grain of salt.

I canceled my BW sub and made the move to Proton when I saw this yesterday. I went through the enshitification of 1PW and won't hang around for the sequel.

The timeframe all depends on the house. Over the last 30 years, we've bought three homes. The first one was an absolute breeze and never caused us heartache. The second one, was a bit of a troublemaker but we just worked our way from room to room, rehabbing the entire house a little bit at a time.

This last one has been a nightmare for the 4 years we've owned it. We've blown through our savings and still don't see the light at the end of the tunnel. Without going into needless detail, on top of a qualified home inspector, I would suggest going to the city/county permitting office to make sure permits were pulled for anything that's been recently done. In our case, the the biggest issue with this property was that apartment over garage was done illegally and we had to completely gut and start over. Unfortunately, the entire reason we picked this house was for that apartment as it was for our daughter to live in.

My intention isn't to scare you but just be sure to perform due diligence and don't be afraid to further investigate potential issues.

Sure, to make it safer in the same way Microsoft made you safer by making it harder to install Linux with UEFI.

Instances often temporarily block participation from certain VPN traffic due to coordinated attacks that occur from those IPs. Most instances lift the ban when the attacks taper off.

I'm commenting from a VPN.

It sounds like you've found some games you like but are turned off of by some difficulty bottlenecks. If that's the case, considerWeMod. It's a trainer for a ton of games that allow you to "cheat" in singleplayer games(god mode, speed hacks, etc.)

I still love playing games but as I get older, my tremors get worse, making it impossible for me to get through one on my own. WeMod allows me to explore all of the game world without being stopped by something as simple as clicking on something quickly.

I don't think it's an uptick, it's been around for as long as I've used the Fediverse.

I've never understood the mindset that this social site is made up of a different mix of personalities than any other. It's not. There's very nice people here and there's very mean people here. Often, the very nice are quiet so you won't always notice them but the meanest are usually very outspoken and everyone comes across something left by them. Hatred, ignorance and toxicity is not something that's left at the door of the fediverse.
